Did something from my last off roading trip at the sand dunes, I'm having trouble trying to find a loud crackling sound when letting go of the clutch in 1st, its also in reverse. seems to be happening when its getting torqued up.
I've checked gear box mount, universal joints, leaf eye bushings they're all good. The nuts on the rear u bolts were pretty loose and axle was wraping a good amount . I've tightened those up and theres now no axle wrap, I thought this was the problem but sound did not go away.
The sound is coming from centre near box. Can't hear the sound if I hold clutch in and roll down a hill onto level ground so its not the body. Sound only appears when torqueing drive train.
If anyone knows what else I can check it would be of much help, bad time of the year to be stuck with problems.
